Chinese woman who conquered the 'Great Wall of Tamil' uses it to build bridges

A video of a Chinese woman introducing the Great Wall in fluent Tamil for a state-owned broadcaster has been praised in India after it captured the imagination of a leading tycoon.

Anand Mahindra, executive chairman of Mumbai-based conglomerate Mahindra Group, shared the video with his 6.7 million Twitter followers saying: “Not easy to learn the accent & cadence of the language but this Chinese lady seems to have conquered the Great Wall of Tamil.”

The two-minute video shared shows the woman wearing an off-white anarkali suit, a popular women’s outfit in Southeast Asia, and starting the tour with the Tamil greeting “vannakam”.

Thanks for this video Ravi. Fun start to a Monday. Not easy to learn the accent & cadence of the language but this Chinese lady seems to have conquered the Great Wall of Tamil. Have to ask my buddy @MM_Murugappan if he approves.. pic.twitter.com/h3V8cr30Gm
